Justin Fields and Chase Young to participate in Jarvis Landry’s celebrity softball game

The boys of fall will be taking place in a game involving the boys of summer. According to Tom Withers of the Associated Press, former Ohio State football stars Chase Young and Justin Fields have been added to the Jarvis Landry Celebrity Softball Game.

It’ll be the second year of the event that — according to the event’s website — includes “family activities, a home run derby, followed by seven-innings of softball. This will be a day filled with a plethora of entertainment, excitement, rivalry, philanthropy and much more!”

The game is set to take place on June 12, with gates opening at 2 p.m. There will be a home run derby at 4 p.m., and then the game starting at 5 p.m. Participants that took place last year include Travis Kelce, Joe Haden, David Njoku, Denzel Ward, Stipe Miocic, Monica Brown, Bernie Kosar, Shelton Gibson, Christian Kirksey, Logan Paul, Jake Paul, Blake Johnson, Shawne Merriman, Myles Garrett, Bamarius Bilbo, Andrew Hawkins, Pharaoh Brown and more.

There hasn’t been a published list of stars that are set to take place in 2021, but it should be a hoot watching some of these guys try and murder a softball.
